Pet Friendly Apartments for Rent in Eden, NC

"I can't believe that they've done this to me. I can't conceive that they've killed history." -John Marshall Carter, The Ballad of Leaksville, Spray and Draper

Present-day Eden is actually a consolidation of three towns: Draper, Leaksville and Spray. John Marshall Carter, a Leaksville native, was away at college when residents voted to merge into one city in 1967. He was devastated to return to "Eden" and, fitting of the times, wrote a protest-minded song lamenting the loss of his hometown. Luckily, most residents don't share John's sentiments, but you can still recognize some distinct qualities in each section of the city. A lot of that has to do with the Smith River, which runs right through the middle of town. But those differences provide residents with a variety of options for property rentals in Eden, a city that encompasses 15 square miles with a population density of about 1,000 people per square mile.

Residents definitely see the value of this available space, so plans to develop and grow without sacrificing the city's authentic vibe have been taking shape over the years
